[FSOwner]

Families are sticking together and searching for better entertainment value this holiday.

A tough economy is casting a shadow over many people’s gift-giving list right now, providing a question mark as to how they will spend their hard-earned cash this holiday season.

It’s no surprise that the majority of respondents admitted to being more cautious about how they will spend their hard-earned cash.

Well, I'm gonna be honest here Echo, if I had to choose a gift for Christmas this year, it will be the XBOX 360. Not because I think the console out performs the Wii or the PS3, but based solely on the fact that it has suddenly become so cheap.

In my country we now pay a 1/4 of the price for the X360 compared to the PS/3 and 1/2 the price of the Wii. Now think that the average salary around here is about the price of a Wii ($379) the XBox360 costs only ($179), whilst the PS3 costs ($650). So I'd have to give up my entire salary for two months, not eating, drinking or sleeping under a roof, never mind afford the electricity to run the damn thing and I have 3 kids ... so ye, with my Bonus this year, I might seriously look at getting my grubby little hands on a X360
